When given a series of words and asked whether they had a positive or negative meaning, only 25 per cent of respondents said religion was positive, while 33 per cent called it negative. The words “forgiveness,” “morality” and “mercy” received the highest positive scores, while “evangelism” and “theology” were the lowest.
HT: Pete VB
“Modernist theology reflected real faith amid the pallid offerings of compromised Christianity, and did so all the more persuasively for promising to meet the scientific temper of the age; yet its proposals finally amounted to human self-projection within a naturalistic frame. It failed the tests of its truth-claims by calling real what its language treated as metaphor. Even more, it disappointed the yearnings of true piety. It was bound to evaporate in the mists of time, but not before damaging many of the faithful and feeding the company of scoffers.”
